General Health Care - December 2006

Hand hurt and swelled up. Had xrays done,which showed no broken bones or fractures. Swelling and pain have significantly reduced. Now, I have pain when gripping and/or pushing fingers from side to side. I notice a a slight bump in the center of the pain (which is about 1 1/2 inches from the wrist in line with the ring finger. Pressure on that spot also hurts. Waiting to go to a specialist but need xrays from GP. IN meantime, does anyone know anything or have experience with similar symptoms?

It worries me more now as am about to start being intimate with someone again and am really worried the wind will expel at the worse time!! Please - only helpful and sympathetic answers!

and it looked pretty bad, so I took her to the ER. They told me it was most likely broken. After the xrays, they didn't really know. They said it didn't look broken, but there was a dent in the bone. So they put a half cast/half splint on her and told me to take her to the orthopedic doctor. When they gave me my release papers they wrote it up as a contusion, which is a bruise on the soft tissue. So which is it? My problem is that it's going to be 4 or 5 days before the orthopedic can see her and I don't think she needs this stupid splint on. She hates it and begs for me to take it off. She hasn't been crying with pain only just wants the splint off. What would you do?

My son just turned 15. He has been complaining of frequent headaches for over couple of years, and the situation is getting worse, tylenol and motrin do not help any more. Doctor's appointment again today. They say it's nothing.

one of my friends has many big veins in his arms, some of my other friends thinks it looks cool while some thinks it's gross. How do you get big veins in your arms??? I don't want to get big veins I just want to know where you get it, so i won't get it. Is it safe for him to get those big veins??? One of my friends told us that uou get those veins if you get tired then you wet your self, is that true??? Because sometimes I play basketball for about an hour and I go to shower, is it safe or not? Will I get those big ugly veins?? What are ways to avoid those? If i get those veins will it be safe???
